“Glioblastoma Multiforme Grade IV”

Why not just say cancer? Is someone out there trying to impress me?

I hope the young lady has a long and full life.

I think they say it because there are a couple of different kinds of brain cancer, and one is far more deadly than the other. Unfortunately, she has that deadly kind. My friend died from it two months ago. She underwent every treatment available, but it’s just a no-win.

It’s the type of cancer and it’s usually fast and lethal. I had an aunts die from this. Within a month of diagnosis she was dead.

I loathe most media as much as any conservative, but in this case I think the journo was conveying just what this youngster is up against. God bless Oliviah and her family. And our POTUS and his.
